Geological Society of Africa (GSAf) — Société Géologique d’Afrique
|
The Geological Society of Africa (GSAf) was established in 1973 to encourage geoscientific collaboration and cooperation across the
continent.
Its main objectives are:
- to promote understanding of the earth sciences and improve standards of earth science education and research in
Africa;
- to provide a forum for discussion and dissemination of information across national boundaries between scientists, associations and institutions engaged in African geology and earth
resources;
- to promote the development and sustainable management of the continent's earth resources, to advance its socio-economic development; and
- to improve natural hazards assessment and disaster mitigation.
The second circular of the Colloquium of African Geology is now available on the following website:
http://www.cag23.co.za.
The organizing Committee of the CAG23 and the Geological Society of Africa invite you to attend
this Colloquium and get a chance to visit the fantastic geological features
of South Africa and contribute in advancing earth science education and
research in the African Continent. The motto of our Colloquium is
“Together in Africa for a Leading Role in Geosciences”
